Riley 0 Posted May 31, 2005 thanks for the info m8,are the 83mm pistons easily available? i have someone who could bore out the block and i could throw the pistons in myself,but is there anything else that would need doing? timing wise etc? cheers,neil. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
junkie 0 Posted June 1, 2005 Not too sure about timing and all that but all i can say is it makes it loads more torquey and revs loads better,kinda like a 16V but with a wide spread of torque. Would defo reccomend! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dazzyvr6 0 Posted June 1, 2005 All i can say is that it must be a pish cossie and a rare one at that only to be left at that power! Chris thats so true,theres a lad up the road from me with a 500bhp cossie,nothing touches it..good strong engines in my opinion aswell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris VR6nos 0 Posted June 2, 2005 A number of the plastic gangsters up here had cossies back in the day and they were always breaking sh1t on them, crap, that's all i can say, the myth outways the reality, never meet your idles. Fast, there's no denying but not reliable on the whole. Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riley 0 Posted June 2, 2005 aye,another m8 of mine has a 3 door cossie,was running 5?? bhp when he bought it! it melted 2 pistons and cracked the block! he detuned it to around 400bhp,and is still very wary on hot days. neil. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
